About Me

My photo
I'm an old-fashioned girl who likes to feel feminine. I'm a mother of one beautiful little lady. Our dog, Henry, considers himself her older brother. I have a husband who loves me and makes me feel beautiful. Who could ask for more?

Valentine charm

My daughter and I hosted a Valentine's Day Tea this year and it turned out simply delightful.  We invited some very special ladies over and sat down to indulge in small sandwiches and finger foods.  Our final treat was red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese icing accompanied by hot coffee and tea with cream.  I highly recommend throwing a tea anytime of the year.  It's a good excuse to buy yourself some flowers.
Who doesn't love cupcakes and roses!

lucky me

I feel so blessed to be a mother.  A gift it is to watch my little girl grow and see her through her own life's journey.  The smiles, the hugs, the frowns, the tears...they are all a part of this sweet person that I am so lucky to take care of.  Lucky me indeed.

"An ear that waits to catch
A hand upon the latch:
A step that hastens its sweet rest to win;
A world of care without,
A world of strife shut out,
A world of love shut in."

man's best friend


When I am home I am never alone.  Henry is always there with me.  He is truly our first child.  At night he plays the part of heating pad as he nestles beside me and falls fast asleep.  What other friend would greet you every time you enter the front door, tail wagging?  A good companion indeed.

"The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too."
